Foundation
Art Gallery of Western Australia Foundation
The Art Gallery of Western Australia holds one of Australia's finest art collections, including one of the most important Indigenous collections in the country and the pre-eminent collection of Western Australian art. This is largely due to the generosity of donors and members of the Foundation.

Acquired through the Great Australain Paintings Appeal with funds presented by the Swan Brewery Co Ltd, 1978.
The key role of the Foundation is to raise funds and encourage donations to assist the Gallery in acquiring works of art. The Foundation also aims to broaden the knowledge, understanding and appreciation of art in the community and assists with the Art Gallery's education program.
A life membership with the Foundation represents a unique opportunity for you to secure a close, prominent, rewarding and long-term relationship with the Art Gallery as it continues to develop. In addition, your contribution can and will benefit future generations of Western Australians.
Our Foundation members are people from all walks of life who enjoy many social opportunities as a result of their membership. The Foundation works hard to ensure a varied and interesting calendar of events is offered to members throughout the year.
From time to time the Foundation will also carry out major fundraising campaigns for specific projects or to purchase a specific work of art. If you would like to support the Art Gallery of Western Australia Foundation you can direct your gift toward a number of different funds.
